Have u ever felt lazy? Have u ever bogged down and lost interest in career when ur male peer has got promotion and you did not get it at the same time?

Hi Amrutha, 
It sounds like you have been disappointed from being passed for a promotion.  I had that experience and many people have that experience in their career.   I am sharing a quote and two articles that  may help as they helped me.   Take care. Mona
